Air Conditioning & Furnace Repair
We know how frustrating and uncomfortable your home can be when your central air isn't working right. We also know finding an HVAC contractor you can trust to fix your system is challenging. Far too many contractors advertise great A/C repair deals, but when they get to your house, their only mission is to sell you a new cooling system!
Here at Watkins, we take a different approach. Our mission is to educate you about your HVAC system's condition and provide the tools you need to make an informed decision. If all you're looking for is a repair to your equipment and not a new system, we'll respect your decision and leave you in the driver's seat.
The cost to fix your heating and cooling system will vary depending on the problem. What are the most common air con problems? We often find simpler issues like a dirty condenser coil, a burnt capacitor, or a bad fan motor. But we've been the go-to HVAC contractor in Southwest Ohio for over 30 years, so we have truly seen it all.
Our HVAC technicians are masters at fixing things that the other guys can't. We aim to fix everything completely the first time so we don't have to come back and repair it later. When you choose a Watkins furnace or central air conditioning repair, you're guaranteed a thorough job. Many of our service contracts have a built-in repair warranty, even on older heating systems! So if you're looking for AC repair in the Dayton and Cincinnati area, reach out today.
HVAC Maintenance & Tune-Ups
To keep your HVAC system running smoothly, every heating and air conditioning expert will note the importance of servicing it at least once a year. Regular maintenance can detect potential issues before they become major problems – saving you money in the long run.
Just like your car, a heating and cooling system is a complex machine that needs maintenance, and going several years without a tune-up usually leads to problems. Annual check-ups are crucial in determining how long your A/C and furnace will serve your family.
You may just be looking for a routine filter change, and we're here for that, too! But Watkins also offers comprehensive tune-ups that go beyond checking refrigerant levels and the essential manufacturer recommendations. Our skilled technicians inspect electrical components, test safeties, and ensure all moving parts are lubricated. Not only does this routine maintenance help prevent unexpected breakdowns, but it's also proven to improve energy efficiency! A well-maintained AC unit operates more efficiently, saving you money on energy costs and extending the life of your HVAC system. If it's been a while since you've checked your air conditioner or furnace, contact our team today.
Air Conditioner & Furnace Install
How long should an HVAC system last? We expect most cooling and heating systems to last 10-15 years. It's always our goal to repair your system, but as they get older, costly issues like a leaky evaporator coil or a seized compressor arise. In these cases, replacing the old central air system is usually more cost-effective.
But homeowners can't just settle for any random HVAC installation. Unlike a refrigerator, you can't just un-box a modern air conditioner and plug it in. Performance depends almost entirely on the installation quality of the HVAC system. Will your installer be paid by the job or by the hour? This may seem minor, but when paid by the job, many installers take shortcuts and focus on speed rather than quality. It's not the brand you buy but the installing company that determines long-term reliability, comfort level, and energy costs.
Our comfort consultants provide much more than free estimates. To guarantee that your new AC system is the right size, we use a certified heat-load calculation to measure your home and ductwork, inspect the insulation ratings, and determine the amount of solar energy coming through your windows.
For equipment, Watkins has a vast selection of new A/Cs, heat pumps, and electric or gas furnaces – from affordable base models to premium brands like Trane. Reach out to us and discover how a new, energy-efficient system will save you money on energy bills, reduced repairs, and tax credits and rebates.
Indoor Air Quality Solutions
Many folks in Southwestern Ohio, struggle with allergies and asthma. The Miami Valley has even been dubbed Sinus Valley because of our high pollen and mold levels! Many Ohioans also struggle with fluctuating humidity levels in their homes as our climate swings from humid summers to dry winters.
If you're struggling with humidity or allergies in Dayton or Cincinnati, Ohio – Watkins has you covered. Most homeowners know about changing your AC/furnace filter, and we're always here to help with that, but filters can only do so much. People forget about indoor air quality, but dozens of pollutants, like dust, airborne chemicals (VOCs), bacteria, and mold, cause poor air quality in your home.
Did you know that Watkins can transform your furnace into a full-house air cleaner to help reduce your allergies? Our expert HVAC technicians can turn your furnace into a full-house air cleaner that is over 20 times more effective than a standalone! Or if you’re dealing with uncomfortably wet or dry air, we can get a humidifier optimized for your space for that perfect humidity sweet spot of 45-50%. If you're interested in a full-house humidifier, air cleaner, disinfecting UV system, or ventilators, give us a call.
